Analysts expect MATIC to hit new all-time high
Polygon network’s native token MATIC ranks in the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Mihalo Bjelic, the co-founder of Polygon network, recently tweeted about MATIC’s success while being aligned with Ethereum.
One of the things I'm proud of is that @0xPolygon set a precedent by becoming a Top 15 project while being fully aligned with Ethereum (instead of trying to kill it).

Net inflows on MATIC bridges have multiplied five times, hitting an all-time high. MATIC network has 4.4 million in daily transaction revenue, up 20% from last week. The total number of active users of the bridge has dropped to 18,666.
There is a significant drop in the number of users on the Polygon network, and experts consider this a result of the rise in transaction fees on the network. There has been a 50% drop in the number of daily active users since the increase in fees.
Over the past week, $480 million was bridged into the Polygon network. This marks a 40.25% increase over the past week.
Interestingly, the $28 billion security token company Enegra Group has moved from Ethereum to the Polygon network. Partnerships have increased the utility of the MATIC token.
